I always liked the looks of the seventh generation Lancer, especially when it became available in that awesome EVO package. I really have fond memories of seeing a EVO V up close during a smoke break in 2001 when one of the (shady) business partners of one of my former employers parked it right next to me. I can still remember that awesome sound, those awesome looks and that awesome smell of burnt oil!

Anyways, I’m drifting off a bit too much… The Chinese car manufacturer Soueast is building the seventh generation of the Lancer in license. In other words, you can still buy them!
There is also a sports edition with a restyled nose. Let’s hope the Chinese are sane enough to offer the EVO versions as well!

I know: airbagged cars and Itasha don’t mix, but these airbags are a different kind of airbags: they replace the original item of this Lancer Evo V:
Airbags in an itasha Lancer Evo V
Yes, that’s of course the perfect airbags for an anime loving itasha owner! 😉
